Basically, I want Competitive Missions to allow people to join games which are already going on, that way if there are leavers/rage quitters/disconnectors they will be replaced by others waiting outside for a game. Leechers would be able to be voted off by majority vote. (what if there are 5 leechers, need suggestions on how to fix)

***Oh, if this has already been suggested before then I apologize, I assure the devs that I searched "competitive mission vote" and got nothing, and that I checked the Index of Ideas and nothing seemed to be similar.

I'd rather have one character getting faction for playing 15 minutes that other for leeching 20.

I would agree with this in all instances, as long as the voting is limited for the first minutes of the match.

Theres no way to distinguish a leech from a normal player. Some guy joins fort aspenwood and sees theres an assassin using...oh i dont know, a hammer. So he assumes the sin is a noob, and petitions a vote to kick him, others agree, and soon the assassin is kicked from the match.

This is just one scenario on what could go wrong. If you fix that, I'll /sign it...

...yes i do have a hammer sin build...

Another issue I frequently come across is super-long load times. This has happened to me before, and I have seen it happen to others. I'll have this 2-minute file decompression, and when I finally get to the mish nobody is on my radar and they're all calling me a leecher. Even recently, did the mish where you fight Varesh twice, and some guy just stood there for the entire first encounter with her. I was about to say something and then he finally moved and complained about long-load time. He took part in the rest of the mish. Too many people will get kicked because of load times with this.
